First time trying to work with this. CX 250 unsure of the nock & insert weight. As well as other boxes. Is it possible someone that understands this could email me or call and walk me through this.

The listed weights are pretty much the standard weight.  Just use the 19 for the aluminum insert that is already listed and use the 13 for the nock, unless of course you've added weight to the nock end or are using a weighted insert.

Sorry Mike, my three year old was distracting me. Hope you got it figured out.

ok, a related question?? I'm shooting a GT 15/35 with a 100gr brass insert and a 125gr point, do I enter 125 for the point and 100 for the insert? or is there an amount already in there for the insert and I need to adjust the 100 gr amount?

CX 250 31" 190 Interceptor regular aluminum insert and three 5" feathers.

GPP 10.0
FOC 16.4

Did you try a little shorter with a 50 gr. insert?

That would brig the weight and FOC up.

If you download the pdf directions from the site all the questions asked here are covered.

 http://www.heilakka.com/stumiller/

Dick you put in the arrow weight and the insert weight.  the 100g insert is approximately 1.5 inches long. For any insert exceeding 1 inch  you need to check yes to footing and put length over one inch.

Les,
I chose the CX Heritage 250 from the drop down box. I didn't put in the weight.
